[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1513391, member: 2736"] It stands for "Short cut" meaning that the tubular powder granules are cut much shorter than the standard granules making them easier to measure and take up less space in the case for larger powder charges If needed. It is what I use in my 7 WSM and 338 RCM for best velocities and accuracy. And yes, freebore is a friend that many people don't take advantage of by seating the bullet against the lands. There is nothing wrong with this method except it causes pressure to rise more quickly and in many cases limits maximum velocity. My recommendation when starting out is to seat the bullet .020 off the lands and go from there. More or less gap will show what your load likes. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
